Craig Sanders <cas@taz.net.au> brought it up on debian-user, but is _not_
packaging it as far as I can tell.

I was very impressed with what I saw in Aachen. The problem is that too many
people are writing for Qt now - more on that in a later message.

I think what I would like to do is get the Debian packages out, and
put out a message of support for the GNOME project on debian-announce, and
then do whatever we can to assist the project.
